The sarangi solo was the opening item. Accompanying Ustad Surjeet Singh was\u00a0 Harkirat Singh on tabla and Amandeep Kaur on the tanpura.\u00a0 Surjeet Singh\u2019s (disciple of Pandit Ram Naryan) offering was Raag Bihag\u2013 a Hindustani classical raga. Bihag is played in the night. The mood of the raag is celebratory as well as romantic, making it a common raag sung especially on celebratory occasions.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0The Sounds of the santoor followed next. Ustad Kiran Pal Singh (disciple of Pandit Shiv Kumar Sharma), with Harkiret Singh Bahra mesmerised the audience with Raag Yamaan. A night raag, Yaman is regarded one of the grandest and most fundamental ragas in Hindustani music. Both instrumentalists exhibited professionalism in their performances, weaving through the intrinsic patterns of the raags with relative ease.<\/span><\/p>\n
